Holiday Hackers Attacked At Least Three Other Major Retailers
Holiday Hackers Attacked At Least Three Other Major Retailers: If you thought you dodged a bullet during Target and Neiman Marcus’ holiday data breaches, you might want to sit down. According to a Reuters report published early this morning, at least three other well-known U.S. retailers were hacked, too.
Unfortunately, we don’t know which retailers yet—only that they’re “well-known” and common in malls—but the perpetrators might be the same dudes who hacked Target and Neiman Marcus, which experienced a similar breach in December.
According to the report, the hackers likely hail from Eastern Europe—and it turns out they staged a series of “trial” hacks that took place in late November.
